Canaima is a computer operating system based on Debian. It originated as a solution to cover the needs of the Venezuelan Government as a response to presidential decree 3,390 that prioritizes the use of free technologies in the public administration. On March 14, 2011, Canaima was officially established as the default operating system for the Venezuelan public administration. The operating system has gained a strong foothold and is one of the most used Linux distributions in Venezuela, largely because of its incorporation in public schools.〔http://www.rnv.gov.ve/noticias/index.php?act=ST&f=19&t=106420&hl=canaima&s=5f203b6ca55b49bfbbdb85019efce5f7 Use of Canaima in schools〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://wiki.canaima.softwarelibre.gob.ve/wiki/Especial:Recentchanges )〕 It is being used in large scale projects as "Canaima Educativo", a project aimed at providing school children with a basic laptop computer with educational software.〔http://www.cnti.gob.ve/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=778:portugal-enviara-250-mil-computadoras-portatiles-a-venezuela-en-el-ano-2009&catid=44:nacionales&Itemid=88 Portugal to send 250,000 laptops to Venezuela in the year 2009〕 nicknamed Magallanes. Use of Canaima has been presented on international congresses about the use of open standards,〔http://www.rnv.gov.ve/noticias/index.php?act=ST&f=14&t=106285&hl=canaima&s=5f203b6ca55b49bfbbdb85019efce5f7 Venezuela participates on II Congreso Internacional Software Libre〕 Despite being a young development, it has been used on the Festival Latinoamericano de Instalación de Software Libre (FLISOL).〔http://www.rnv.gov.ve/noticias/index.php?act=ST&f=14&t=95808&hl=canaima&s=5f203b6ca55b49bfbbdb85019efce5f7 Free installation of free software in over 200 cities of Latin-America〕 In February 2013 DistroWatch ranked it the 185th most popular Linux distribution among 319 for the last 12 months.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=popularity )〕 Official Venezuelan news outlets report several installations, but the majority of computers in the country still run pirated versions of Microsoft Windows, unless Windows is preinstalled with new computers. == Features == Some of the major features of Canaima GNU/Linux are: # Easy installation. # Software license cost is free. # Free distribution and use. The Free Software Foundation (FSF) states that Canaima GNU/Linux is not 100% free software. This is because of the fact that some of its components are closed-source proprietary software, in particular some hardware drivers needed for graphic cards, sound cards, printers, etc. Canaima creators opted to include these proprietary drivers in order to support as many computers being used by the Venezuelan government as possible, and to facilitate the migration from a closed-sourced operating system to an open-source one. It is expected that Canaima, in its upcoming releases, offers an option in the installation process for proprietary drivers to be optional, being able to install a 100% free software image of the distribution if the user choose to. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Canaima (operating system)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
